Hello all please help me with a small problem that I am having.

I know that if you have an inductive load to correct the power factor you have to add a capacitive load in parallel. But what do you do if you have a capacitive load and you want to correct the power factor? Do you simply add an inductor in parallel or do you also need a resistor.

Also does anyone have a good idea on how to measure the current for an A/C circuit that is a square wave and not a sine wave.

 

you need to add resistance into the ckt.for your square wave form, you might try a power factor meter (?)
